On my way to work this morning I saw a couple of Metro's
lying on the bus and I had to grab a quick picture with my
cell.. ![]() Journalism at its best
"Sweden's road to success - Metro investigates" What!? Expert
about the chance in "percent". What is this, is the paper written for
five year-olds? When was percent anything to brag about. Why in the world
do you wanna write an investigative article about football, and quantify
the probability of a win in percent - and why in the world would you
wanna put that on the front page?? "We believe Sweden's chance of
victory is 27.4%". Please, write articles with WORDS, not trivial
calculations. I just could not bring myself to pick up the paper to
actually look at the article. But judging from the front page and from
the fact that it's Metro, and their previous track record of
investigative journalism and "great" articles I reserve my right to
judge them without doing so. It is so silly... And it gives Sweden a
bad reputation abroad of having lowbrow newspapers. Which we
unfortunately deserve.
